Hey,
I'm considering to update to iOS7, but i don't want to risk losing my data (especially my contacts, photos and whatsapp chat history)..
Now, if I am correct, then, an itunes backup saves my contacts and photo's.
However, my question is whether an iTunes backup also saves my whatsapp chat history?
Can someone help me out please?
Thanks in advance!
iPhone 4S

I already read that, but just wanted to be sure!
So, basically, there is no real difference between a backup in itunes or in icloud, apart from the destination of the saved data and the fact that with icloud you can choose which things you want to transfer/save?
If you already read it, then you know that app data is part of either the icloud or itunes backup.
Like i said, I just wanted to be sure!
Much obliged! 🙂
It didn't work for me. I backed up my phone on August 4th and when I encountered a problem and had to do a restore (from 4th August), none of the apps were there. And most importantly, WhatsApp with thousands of messages with my clients were gone. When I reinstalled the app, it asked me if I want to restore, but even after restoring 700mb from iCloud, it is just blank. Really frustrating. Now nearly a month on, I am still trying to recover back my thousands of messages.
Does iTunes backup whatsapp chat history ?
